Rear seats are stuck...

Post by gazza_no7 »

I put my rear seats down a few days ago to get some laminate flooring in my car and once i tried to put them back up they only went about half way and then got stuck :S this happened to both of them but one further back than the other... i really need to fix this because i dont see it being safe for people to be in the back with them being like this? and also its just playing on my mind..

Anyone got an idea on how to sort it? i tried brute force by someone pushing the button down and me bashing the seat but nothing happened...

is the back seat stuck on the 2 latch metal things sticking out ? meaning its on latch one and not fully upright ?
this is standard issue with the corsa they get stuck on it if you dont do it right

i find taking the few seconds it takes to jump into the back seat, press both buttons down firmley, and moving the back seat either up or down untill its either into postion or free and clear from the metal latch things. Only letting go of the buttons when its in the desired location.

My back seat got stuck on the damm things and with a bit of force and pressing buttons down i was able to clear it.
